I think most demand stuff would be as follows phreak:
-Body kit that would resemble the Toyota iSt so that people could afford it and get the look they want rather then the +2g to import
-A different variation of the rear spoiler (something smaller then the Scion Optional one)
-Fog lights for the RS1.0 bumper
-Mesh grille (billet is for mustangs)
-More affordable lip kit in comparison to the 5Axxis
-Complete LED styled Tail lamps
-Blacked out Headlights
I definately would like some sort of rear diffuser though :D
People are also still looking for cat-backs if your capable of that also.

anyways, I was thinking another potential part would be the body piece that has the scion badge on the back above the license plate... one that would be a replacement without the badge (because the stock one has a big bulb for the emblem)

you need a lot more than just ITB's to show gains. the entire engine must be rebuilt and blueprinted and balanced to see the benefit really. must be race ready to be honest and you need to drive at 9/10's all the time to enjoy it.

Does anyone know Doc Brown? I REALLY think a Flux Capacitor would look really sweet in the xD's dash... lol
Really though, there is a good amount of product out there now, and more is on its way.... I mean yeah, economy sucks and that has a LOT to do with it, but things will pick up and when they do I'm sure that there will be a small explosion of aftermarket parts. Writing companies and showing interest is only one way we can get things started. Letting them know we are interested and getting people together to spend the money to get the parts made, thats the point of this thread right?

Hmm... I could build the flux capacitor, yes.... That shouldn't be hard should it? Really, if I knew what to use to make a replica one I would consider doing it!!!
But does anyone know where I can find a Mr. Fusion?
And where is Todd with any word on this turbo kit he's working on?

Here's some Cross Slotted and Drilled rotors if anyone is interested : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SCION...Q5fAccessories
wow this thread went outta hand. please stick to the topic of parts development, not personal views and what not.
for example,
i know a couple companies developing a header for the xD. one of them which i am very close with because they are taking the header from my stock xD motor to do measurements and developing off of =)
there's stuff coming, its just taking a little long. the demand for parts for the xd's arent exactly like the 1st gen xb's just be patient
